Dirt Series Round 5

ImageThe Dirt Series is a new style eight round MX/ATV/UTV racing series based in Southern California and presented by Triumph Motorsport. Since the Dirt Series is offering over $65,000 worth of cash and prizes and impressive contingency programs from GBC and STI that total over $20,000 the series grows with each round.

Racetown 395 in Adelanto, CA played host to this round, which was full of new faces and great racing. As riders arrived they were forced to deal with hot temperatures from the High Desert, but as the day went on the weather wasn’t as bad as it had been and sure did allow for some great racing. Below are the highlights from round 5…

ImageThe Open 250 class is the biggest class and one of the most fun to watch. This class is loaded with young full-of-spirit racers – Just what the sport needs!

ImageBrandon Lugan and his mom made a huge trip to come out to the Dirt Series. It was nice to see the Lugans back at it. Brandon took home the 450 Beginner win.

ImageJerry Maldonado aboard his Triumph-built Yamaha Raptor 250 raced in three classes – 450 Novice, Open 250 and Quad Open.This young man battled through six motos to get himself two first place finishes and a second place. The second place was only due to a second place. The runner up spot was only due to a rollover in the corner as he was leading the race. This 13 year old battled Raptor 700 and fully built 450s all day! Now that’s heart! Great job kid!
